Classic Switzerland

Your journey begins with a comfortable trip to Switzerland. You can choose a flight for a fast arrival. Alternatively, select a night train for a more relaxed and scenic start.

If you choose the night train, you travel calmly through Europe. Then you wake up to views of green valleys and dramatic alpine landscapes. Meanwhile, a flight gives you more time to enjoy your first day in Switzerland.

After arrival, continue to Zermatt, an alpine village at the foot of the Matterhorn. The car-free center and traditional wooden houses create a charming atmosphere. As a result, it is easy to relax from the start. Take a gentle walk through the village, enjoy a hot chocolate, or try a local dish such as raclette at a cozy restaurant.

Glacier Express

Begin your journey at the foot of the Matterhorn and travel through the Alps to St. Moritz on the iconic Glacier Express, often described as one of the most scenic train journeys in the world.

Along the way, you cross 291 bridges and pass through 91 tunnels. In addition, the train climbs over the Oberalp Pass at 2,033 meters above sea level.

The journey starts through the Mattertal Valley, where you enjoy impressive views of the Matterhorn. Shortly after, the train passes through Brig along the Rhone River.

Next, the route continues across the famous Landwasser Viaduct, a railway bridge listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Afterwards, the train travels through Chur and the Engadin Valley. Finally, after around 7.5 hours, you arrive in St. Moritz, where you stay overnight at a hotel near the station.

From St. Moritz, another scenic journey begins. This time, you travel on the legendary Bernina Express, one of the most beautiful train routes in the world. The route is part of a UNESCO-listed railway, where natural beauty meets remarkable engineering.

The journey starts with a climb through the Engadin Valley. Here, mountain peaks and glaciers create a dramatic backdrop. Along the way, the train passes key highlights.

First, you reach the Bernina Pass, the highest point of the route at 2,253 meters above sea level. The landscape features snow-covered peaks and alpine lakes. Then, you pass the Morteratsch Glacier, where the train runs close to the ice, offering a rare and striking view.

After the pass, the train descends through southern landscapes in Switzerland. As a result, the scenery changes gradually. Soon, you cross into Italy, where vineyards, green valleys, and small villages create a softer atmosphere.

In Tirano, the train journey ends. From here, continue by bus to Lugano. The route follows scenic roads and runs along Lake Como, with views of clear water and elegant villas.

Upon arrival in Lugano, you are welcomed by a lakeside town where Italian charm meets Swiss precision. The rest of the day is free to enjoy this unique setting.

Lugano, a gem in southern Switzerland, blends Italian flair with Swiss precision. Located on the shores of Lake Lugano and surrounded by green hills, the town offers a relaxed atmosphere and a wide range of experiences.

Start your stay with a walk along the Lungolago promenade. Here, you can enjoy views of clear water and surrounding mountains. Along the way, you pass elegant gardens and small squares. As a result, the setting feels calm and inviting.

Next, visit Parco Ciani, a lakeside park known for its well-kept gardens and peaceful paths. It is an ideal place to pause and enjoy views of the lake.

For panoramic views, take a trip to Monte San Salvatore or Monte Bre. Both can be reached by cable car. From the top, you enjoy wide views over Lake Lugano, nearby mountains, and scattered villages.

The town center offers charming streets with shops, cafes, and restaurants. Here, you can try local dishes such as risotto alla luganega or fresh gelato. Lugano combines Italian cuisine with Swiss quality.

In the evening, relax by the lake and enjoy the peaceful setting. For example, have a glass of local wine while the lights reflect on the water. Lugano is an elegant and calm destination, and a perfect end to the day.

Your journey through scenic landscapes and charming towns in Switzerland comes to an end with a comfortable return from Lugano. You can choose a flight for a faster journey home. Alternatively, take a night train for one last scenic experience.

Flight: From Lugano, you can easily reach the nearby airport in Milan, with direct connections to Denmark. This option allows time to enjoy a relaxed morning by Lake Lugano before departure.

Night train: If you prefer a more relaxed and sustainable option, travel north and connect to a night train to Denmark. Along the way, enjoy views of European landscapes as you pass through Switzerland and Germany.

Whichever option you choose, this day marks the end of a memorable journey. You have explored iconic routes such as the Glacier Express and Bernina Express, along with impressive alpine scenery and elegant towns. As a result, you return home with lasting memories of scenic rail travel and unique experiences.
